Security ... think about it!
Under the terms of the settlement, LifeLock will be barred from making deceptive claims and will be prohibited from misrepresenting its services. The terms also put limitations on the company's ability to state the risks of identity theft and will require LifeLock to establish a new data security program that will be subject to third-party assessments for the next 20 years. "This agreement effectively prevents LifeLock from misrepresenting that its services offer absolute prevention against identity theft because there is unfortunately no foolproof way to avoid ID theft," Illinois Attorney General Lisa Madigan said in a statement.
